When you’re gone,
Will dreams still be dreams and dreams still come true,
Even if my dreams always involve you,
Will walking still be walking if there’s no where to go,
‘Cause you’re the only destination that I’d ever know,
Will the unknown be known and the mystery be solved,
When I find nothing’s a wonder unless you’re involved,
Will I still be a person, will a person still be in me,
When I realize I’m the lesser half of what we used to be,
Will the rhythm of the music still flow with the rhythm of my heart,
When I find the melody isn’t so sweet when we’re apart,
Will I still dare to be different, will the different still dare,
When I find I can’t step out of the crowd without you there,
Will all falsehoods lead to hope, and all hopes be false,
If the last flickers of purpose become as slow as my pulse,
Will the impossible still be possible, will beating the odds still matter,
Once I’ve fallen back and watched every fragment of my heart break and shatter,
Will light still need darkness, will darkness still need light,
When I’ve lost the only person who ever held me through the night,
When You’re Gone,
Will the true still find love, will my love still be true,
When each moment reminds me the only person I could love is You.
